Ahh I was bored so I thought I wouls start this one off for the hell of it.

You know the rules by now.

You get 3 lifelines to start with as always. 50/50, Phone a friend and Ask the Audience.

More will become available as you progress up the money ladder.

We will start as always with a fastest finger first. So here it comes.

Put these characters in to alphabetical order by their last names.

A Yuffie
B Barret
C Aeris
D Tifa

Okay, assuming I understood correctly, and I think I did, this order should be good...


C.) Aeris (Gainsborough)
A.) Yuffie (Kisaragi)
D.) Tifa (Lockhart)
B.) Barret (Wallace)

That is indeed correct. So would you please take your place centre stage Agent0042 as we begin your journey for 1 million Gil

For 100 Gil

Sephiroth is the last boss in which game,

A: FFVIII
B: FFX
C: FFVII
D: FFIX

C.) FFVII --- unless Hiro has finally managed to bend space in ways previously unimaginable. :D

It is indeed FFVII in which Sephiroth is the last boss.

So for 200 Gil

Eiko uses Which of the following as her weapons

A: Little Stuffed Animals
B: A Shuriken
C: A Flute
D: Gloves

Eiko uses C: A Flute --- a most interesting and unusual style of weapon.

Indeed it is and indeed she does.

So for 300 gil tell me this.

Aeris was one of the last remaining what?

A: Ancients
B: Clerya
C: Shumi Tribe
D: Fayths

A. Ancients --- i.e. The Cetra. All of those others are from other FFs.

Very perceptive. So the 500 gil Question is as follows,

The Theme Maybe I'm a lion comes from which of the final fantasy series.

A: VIII
B: V
C: X
D: IX

That would be from A. VIII. During the Griever battle --- I quite enjoy that one.

Its a personal favorite of mine. It is indeed from the Griever Battle.

So we are at the 1000 gil landmark.

A sending can only be performed by which of the following.

A: Black Mage
B: Ninja
C: Summoner
D: Lady Luck

A Sending would be performed by a C.) Summoner --- and, of course, only in Final Fantasy X --- the summoner (i.e. Yuna) sends the souls of the departed to the Farplane.

Hey I just got a burst of inspiration. Add to the rules:
"No posting unless it's your turn" (This post being the obvious exception, of course;-) ). To prevent unnecessary cluttering of this thread.
"If you've just had a turn, you have to wait until someone else has gone until you can go again". To ensure a fair go for everyone.
"If you don't answer within 3 days of a question being asked, you forfeit your turn". To keep the thread alive.

Well that's my two cents.

Well I will impose those rules if someone I dont know is playing. Agent I know will always be about and will answer when he can. But thanks for the advice I take it all in to account:)

Anyways Agent she is all good :)

It is indeed a summoner yes.

So lets carry this on for 2000 gil

In one of the Final Fantasy series subtle references are made to both Cloud and Squall. But which game are they made in.

A: FFVIII
B: FFX-2
C: FFIX
D: FFX

Xander, if I didn't know better, I'd think you were reading my recent posts and creating question material from them. :) That would have to be C: FFIX --- "let no cloud, no squall hinder us."

Ill update this in a bit Agent.

Thanks, Xander. I may have signed off by then, but if so, I'll just answer in the morning.

It is indeed FFIX and that lands you 2000 gil in the kitty.

For 4000 gil lets carry on with the question. The character Cid appears in a lot of the final fantasy series but which of the following roles has he played.

A: Pilot, Doctor, Oglop and Al bhed
B: Headmaster, Pilot, Al Bhed and a summon
C: Ronzo. Headmaster, Ancient and an Oglop
D: Headmaster, Al Bhed, Oglop and a pilot

Okay, this is a bit confusing. When you say "role" I am assuming that by "Doctor" you are referring to an actual medical doctor --- a physician and not merely the "Doctor" title.

Yes I mean a General Doctor not the just the name doctor.

Well, then I guess it would have to be D.)

FFVIII has Headmaster Cid, of course. FFX/X-2's Cid is an Al Bhed. FFIX's Regent Cid is an oglop, for a while anyway. And several FF Cids could qualify as pilots.


There are at least a couple "Doctor Cids," I think, but neither of them are actually medical doctors.

It is indeed answer D: so thats 4000 gil to you and you have unlocked a new lifeline.

The lifeline you have unlocked is like the one being used in the FFIX rumble called Ask the Panel. Except to add a twist you wont know who the panel members are. But they will be members who have some reputibilty here not random noobs I assure you. The Random Panel life line is now yours to use. If anyone wants to be on the Panel let me know the more people apply the more interesting it makes it when the lifeline is used. Just pm me and let me know.

So for 8000 gil answer me this one.

The enemy skill Goblin punch appears in which of the following Final fantasys.

A: FFVII + FFX
B: FFIX + FFVII
C: FFVIII + FFIX
D: FFX + FFVIII

The random panel, eh? Sounds fun. Okay, let's work this out. The Goblin Punch. Okay, I know for 100% sure that the Goblin Punch is in FFIX. I used it to some effectiveness. So that eliminates C.) and D.) for me. Therefore, it's automatically between A.) and B.). I can noodle this out. I'm 99% sure I actually remember being in a thread about Quina yesterday and somebody was talking about hir use of this skill. Couple that with the fact Kimahri is the blue magic user in FFX and he doesn't use any Goblin Punch and you end up with B.: FFIX + FFVII.


P.S.: Random panel really does sound interesting. Looking forward to hopefully having a chance to try it.

The way you worked it out confused me. But the correct answer you did get.

So for 16000 gil lets have a shot at this one.

In Final Fantasy VIII in ultemicias Castle there is a room full of painting with Latin names. Can you tell me what the follwing three paintings translate in to. (Ps before anyone starts about how do I speak Latin I have a friend who does and I also checked it against Gamefaqs but I trust Agent enough not to do that) Inandantia, Xiphias and Inaudax Is it

A: Messenger, Watchman, Flood
B: Cowardice, Red Clothes, Fire
C: Flood, Swordfish, Cowardice
D: Judgement, Tree lined road, Red Clothes

Interviglium something Viator --- that's the only one of those painting names I kinda remember and I seem to recall that one translating to "In the Garden sleeps a Messenger." Some of those words that are coming up there I definitely recall and I have an answer that I'm strongly leaning towards and I think I know what one of those words translates to for sure. However, I guess I'll go ahead and Phone / PM a Friend because I am shaky on this. I assume basically anyone I want to choose on the Shrine is open?

By all means. Who would you like to phone?

I think I will take a shot on phoning Rapture.

Alright I will fire off a pm to him. He will then have 24 hours to reply.

Well, here's hoping he comes through. Of course, if he hasn't responded by now, he's probably not going to.

I must bring the regretful news that Gummi Bears / Xander has decided to leave the Shrine, for good. If somebody wants, they can continue this game. I'd recommend starting a new thread, that way, you have better control over it. Either way, I'd like to continue the game I have open if at all possible.

sounds good

LOL. You're not volunteering to continue it, then, are you? Anyone? If not, then I guess our other option is to let it die peacefully.

I'll continue it, and see if it gets any luck.
